OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE PERSONAL PIE™
1. Insert the plug into a 110/120V power
outlet and close the lid. The red power
‘ON’ light will illuminate and remain
illuminated until the power plug is
removed from the power outlet.
2. Allow the Pie Maker to preheat with the
lid closed. When the green ‘Ready’ light
illuminates, the Pie Maker is ready to use,
approximately 4-5 minutes. The 'Ready'
light will cycle on and off during operation
to maintain the correct temperature.
NOTE
When baking the first batch of pies, it is
recommended to allow the Pie Maker to
preheat for two cycles to achieve the
optimum baking temperature. To preheat
the Pie Maker for two cycles, allow the
green ‘Ready’ light to illuminate then go
out, then illuminate again. The Pie Maker
is ready to use when the green ‘Ready’
light illuminates for the second time.
3. While the Pie Maker is preheating,
lightly flour the work surface, roll out
the thawed pastry sheet, then sprinkle
generously with flour. This will prevent
the pastry from sticking to the Pastry
Cutter and Pastry Press.
4. Position the Pastry Cutter over the flat
sheet of pastry. Press down firmly. Do
not twist as this will tear the pastry. Cut
4 pastry tops (using the smaller end) and
4 pastry bases (using the larger end).
One standard ready-rolled square sheet
or ready-rolled round is sufficient for two
pies (2 pastry tops and 2 pastry bases), so
you will need 2 sheets. Ensure the cut is
smooth around the edges.
TIP
The edge of the Pastry Cutter can be
sharp when applying pressure. For
more comfortable pastry cutting, nest
the Pastry Press inside the Pastry
Cutter and push down with the palm
of your hand.
5. When the green 'Ready' light illuminates,
open the lid. Place one pastry base over
the center of one Pie Mold. Using the
Pastry Press, gently press downwards to
mold the pastry into the Pie Mold. The
edge of the pastry should overlap the Edge
Crimper. Repeat with the remaining 3
pastry bases.
TIP
If the Pastry Press sticks to the pastry
base, lightly flour the pastry or Pastry
Press.
